'Moving' means 'drawing it at different places corresponding to different times'.
You just need to know how to use a timer. I would Google with: "C# using a timer for moving a picture box"[^].

its enf only if we change the location of the object

in timer evnt

picturebox1.Location = new Point(40, 40);

use some validation to make it move like marquee....

Is there no other way to keep the picturebox moving? My assignment is to make a simple reflex agent, would the timer be the right choice to move my 'agent' because after this I have to make model based and goal based agents and i don't think the timer would work there.

You cannot avoid a timer, even with agents. "Moving" implies "Timer". Your agents would probably be implemented as state machines with transitions happening at timer ticks.

Ok I'll try the timer then and thank you so much for your help.
